SUMMARY:2016 Conservative Agriculture Tour - Stop #2
DESCRIPTION:It was great to tour family owned feedlot operations in southern Alberta with Craig Paskal and John Schooten. Theses families have been leaders in the industry that forms such an important part of our communities and economy in rural Canada. \nMany thanks for showing John Barlow\, MP Foothills\, Martin Shields\, Member of Parliament\, Glen Motz for Medicine Hat-Cardston-Warner and myself around their high quality operations. \nIt’s great to meet with Canadian farm families that are dedicated to pursuing the highest standards in the industry and delivering quality products to Canadians and consumers all around the world.

SUMMARY:2016 Conservative Agriculture Tour - Stop #1
DESCRIPTION:The next dill pickle you eat probably has some Alberta flavour! \nI visited the Thacker family farm in Bow Valley\, Alberta and learned that most pickle processors use dill oil\, rather than the plant\, to get consistent taste in their pickles. The Thacker family has innovated the technologies to. reduce the energy and labour needed to extract the oil from the dill plant. \nThat’s not all the Thackers are busy with. Ever wonder what gives your toothpaste the minty taste? It could come from the spearmint oil extracted from mint grown on the Thacker farm. The Bow Island producer\, produces over 30% of the spearmint oil in North America.

Thanks to all the volunteers\, sponsors and donors who joined us at Canopy West Truck Accessories for a great fundraiser. \nI also had the privilege of meeting with several Fort MacMurray residents who are now staying in GP\, including Gaea and Chris. Gaea and Chris are expecting their first baby any day. They still haven’t confirmed if their house was saved. Chris decided to take a turn on the dunk tank to help raise funds for others who have lost so much.  \n\nI am proud of our community and all Canadians who have stepped up and given so much over the past few weeks!
